Get P&L in PLACE markets

[sibur]

P&L Selections.jpg

I would like to accurately record the P&L of a market in a place market with more than 1 winner (generally horses)

In the attached image the figures shown under the selection accurately show what the P&L is whether the outcome is a winner or a loser
ie.
1st selection is a Winner, profit= -£0.28
2nd selection is a loser, profit is £0.21

I want to know if I can gather this information in SVs from Out of the Box Automation information ie using a rule file

Note, in a win only market there is no problem calculating this using "the profit & loss of a selection" - I can do this fine by simply adding up all the winning selection P&L's.

I am aware this info is also available in the Profit & Loss Report and if I can't achieve what I want using .BAF then my next move would be to implement a suitable post result analysis of these files - which is something I'd rather avoid as its much harder!

Short answer is no, there isn't a way of storing those place market values.

I can't remember exactly why off the top of my head except that it was far from a straight forward task to implement

It can easily be done when it's just back bets.

test 17.baf

Add lay bets into the mix, which it looks like the OP requires, and things get a lot more tricky.

Care to share your automation Memphis?
